Well, no, you don't *need* to do it that way. But each access method
has its own access control, whether svn or svn+ssh, file based, or
http/https. Rather than exerting cleverness, simply disabling all
writes in a clean and easily restored fashion, and one that is more
certain to be replicated by an svnadmin hotcopy, seems quite
reasonable.
